Some of you already know this but RPG Expert is in the habit of stealing information from others sites. The vast majority of their info is plain old cut and paste from other websites. They hide behind the claim that they bought the work and didn't know it was stolen. The issue is that all of the stolen atricles have no author at all. And they refuse to say who allegedly sold then the article. RPG expert is owned by yantis and many of the writers are very annoyed by the fact that a plat selling site is using the work they spent hours or day's making to boost their advertising. When anyone complains on the articles their posts are deleted immediately. No excuse no reason just poof.

Believe it or not this effects the players. If everytime I spend a day or 2 writing a good guide for a fellow player to follow only to have to ripped off then I am going to loose the will to write those guides in the future. and when that happens there will be less info for you the player. Not including that fact that what they do is illegal and thier host could shut them down. Which would have probably happened if they weren't using a IP cloak to hide their hosting info. Hmmm wonder why they would do that?

Please stand up for those who have worked so hard to help you enjoy your everquest experience. Help put a stop to RPG Expert's actions.
